In The Fashionista's Closet: B. Jones Inspired

Today's outfit post was inspired by Beth of B. Jones Style.

Her way:


I dig her.


My Way:
 I loved this look when I saw it on Beth and I enjoyed it for me. Comfortable yet still style-worthy....




A kindergarden class was writing letters to Santa about gifts they wanted for their family members and this is what one kid wrote:


A MAN for his mom? I thought I misunderstood what he meant so I asked him "You want a MAN for your mom?" "Yes" he said, "a boyfriend."  "Ummmmkayyy," I said (secretly hoping someone is praying for a man for me for Christmas.) "My dad I have now is mean to her so I want her to have a new man."

I ain't trying to be funny but she already got a man and he's wishing for a NEW man??? I think that's kind of greedy......



Jacket: Thrifted
Maxi dress: Bought from a shopping party eons ago
Boots: Juicy Couture

Here's hoping Santa brings you all the things you want!

The most important thing in his letter is the "the dad I have now is mean to her." Mean to her? How mean?? Slapping her around mean?? He's trying to take care of her. She may not know it, but she has a great man, even tho he's only 5!!

Ms. Tee said...

Cute outfit! It's too cold out here to wear something like that right now.

I am over here cracking up at your commentary on the Santa letter! That reminds me of this movie I saw on BET a couple of weeks ago. I think it was called The Perfect Christmas...Morris Chestnutt and Gabrielle Union were in it.

Totally cute! I live in FL, so this is definitely a style I can rock!
p.s. I luv your hair!

You look great!

But I am with Mellodee. Abusive men are a SERIOUS situation and having a man like that is having less than NONE. Her son is RIGHT ON.

I am quite surprised to see that this issue is not recognized for what it is and not taken seriously. Women need to WAKE THE HECK UP.
